My friend has recently been told her 59 yr old brother has moderate learning difficulties. He has always lived in the family home and since their mum died about 10yrs ago (dad died when they were both teenagers) her brother has let himself and the house go. He was also in danger of loosing the house due to his inability to manage his finances.He has worked but was made redundant a few years ago. My friend has got SS involved, that is how his problems have come to light.
I asked her whether anything had been said whilst he was at school. She said "Oh, they didn't see things like that then" I'm sure when I was at School there were children classed as "slow" very un PC now but it means the same thing.
Were schools aware in 60's 70's ?
Is there such a thing as delicious ready meals?
